Lulo Reinhardt is a gifted guitarist who was taught by his father since the age of five. At twelve, he was already playing with the Mike Reinhardt Sextet, a formation entirely dedicated to the gypsy swing of Django Reinhardt. In 1991, leaving the sextet to explore new musical experiences he founded I Gitanos with his father Bawo and cousin Degé. The first result of their new way gypsy goes Latin to which Nicky Marrero participated, was the release of I suni CD in 1994. Since then, successful tours throughout Europe and release of next CD, AB I Reisa, in 1998 followed.
In the meantime, Lulo Reinhardt has worked on various projects and has established himself an outstanding reputation as a composer and guitarist. He has played in several major events as Rock gegen Hass, International Cultural Festival Sahara en el Corazón (Algeria - with Brazilian guitarist Zezo Ribeiro , World Roma Festival Khamoro, Jazz Goes to Town (Czech Republic), Jazz and Blues Festival (Czech Republic), Sidmouth Folk week (UK) and many others.
Along the way, he has gathered the best musicians around him to create his personal project. Lulo Reinhardt Project is the accomplishment of a maturing style and artistic creation, which you cannot classify. Swinging from tune to tune, Lulo Reinhardt brings into his music his gypsy roots as well as flamenco or Latin rhythms from Cuba to Brazil.
After the success of his CD Project No 1 (2002), Lulo Reinhardt released the awaited Project No 2 in July 2005.
Thanks to a careful choice of musicians, whom he worked previously with, and who join him in his musical fantasy, Lulo Reinhardt is bringing up a top-level performance that enchants any audience..............................................................................................
-" Lulo Reinhardt is a spontaneous and spirited musician who is led by the guitar into musical voyages of discovery. His curiosity has taken him to southern Spain in search of flamenco roots, and to South America, exploring various musical styles of Latin Jazz.
Lulo expresses his artistic personality in his gypsy influences, reflecting his character.
-Lulo Reinhardt..s music reveals his enthusiasm for virtuosity and spontaneity and at the same time, a deep melancholy and nostalgia- more imagination than reality. Inspiration and feeling of the gypsies are moulded by Lulo Reinhardt into a rythmic flowing symbiosis of elegance and spirit.
